SIGNS OF END TIME LOVERS OF PLEASURE MORE THAN LOVERS OF GOD


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: SIGNS OF END TIME

LOVERS OF PLEASURE MORE THAN LOVERS OF GOD - (2 Tim 3:4) "Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;"

If ever there was a time when people revealed themselves as pleasure crazy, that time is now!
" I've watched people sitting and getting drunk" and make a sour face as they took a sip. I've leaned over and said, "If it's that bad, why do you drink it?".

Drink and drunken drivers are a major problem these days. Every single day hundreds of people are killed by drunken drivers. Where's the pleasure in all this? A driver nearly hit my car yesterday evening when I was coming from town to my mother inlaws house, you could see the way the driver was driving, you need not to be told he is dead drunk. Where is the pleasure in that which is about claiming his life?

Then there's the gambling crowd. The lose and lose and lose, but still gamble away their money. Where on earth is the pleasure in all that? And the same people goes about saying government didn't pay salary, but the little they suppose to spend wisely with the family, they gamble with it, What a wasteful life.

The Bible speaks of the pleasure of sin for a season. (Heb 11:25) "Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;" So since God's Word does say "PLEASURES of sin", I suppose they get pleasure in doing so…but remember the last part of that verse, "FOR A SEASON." It doesn't last long.

I would rather live a good moral clean life and not take part in the so-called "pleasures of sin" and enjoy an eternity in Heaven with the Lord. I would rather spend my time doing something that will last forever than to "enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season."

Brethren what are you enjoy now, is it what you will pay with your life after or what God will be happy with you after? Godliness and Contentment is a great gain, don't be carry away by the signs

LET US PRAY
FATHER IN JESUS NAME RETURN UNTO ME THE JOY OF MY SALVATION AMEN
